For ARR it was ~3 months (~90 days) between major patches (Patches 2.x) with intermediate patches spread out in between as well (2.xy)

The scenario you are describing assumes people blow through the content major patches offer nigh instantly, and do not log on for intermediate patches at all.
Those are not people who play regularly.
